Did anyone do the cruise from Surrey Place mall to the Java Hut in Langley?? I did and had a blast and saw some pretty amazing machines. Theres also a club and you can check it out here under regional board pacific northwest. www.camaroz28.com

(South) Surrey here, me and FatJ (post above) are thick as thieves.
We definitely need to have a meet. I'm thinking Langley.
We could hit up Cruisers restaurant - I'm sure they'd be receptive to a bunch of car guys.. i hear they have meets there all the time. Of course I could call to find out more.
My car's really not gonna be ready till late august / early september (the interior is gutted - I'm doin a lot of work)... so selfishly, I'd suggest sometime around then. It's not like it really gets all that cold here, at least.. not until november/december.
What does everyone think?

Late August early September sounds good to me since my car is not entirely ready as well. Hopefully we can work out a time that will work with everyone's schedules.

Clearance? Whats that? 
Um.......from the ground.....
4" up at the RS on the side
5" from the front of the chin spoiler
4.5" from the infront of the rear wheels
The air dam is about 3/4" from the road so it scrapes quite a bit. The front suspension sits on the rubber snubbers but the back has about 1.5" of travel. It really doesn't drive that bad and corners like a shark. I love to eat up honda's around corners!
How do you like the view out my mirror? Got bass?

Yup I do. Hey! We have the same color interior! Crazy. You'll have to excuse the box. It's been a work in progress. All fiberglass. The entire box weights in at about 15lbs 
I'm up over 142dB but I don't know by how much.

you know how it goes. Some people find better things to do at the last minute. Anywho, count me in! Are we going to make this a dinner or a lunchoen? Later in the evening would be better for most people. 5:30 sounds good for me. Is there a drive in theater somewhere close? It would be cool to bring a flock of 3'rd gens to a drive in
As it stands

I know what you mean......I want to have my intake and cam done before I go, but we'll see. Do you possibly have an address for Cruiser's? I live in the States and don't have a way to find it easily. Thanks!
